Hessonite garnet
or "Gomed"
in Sanskrit & Hindi is the Jyotish gem related to Rahu (Moon's ascending node), which is mainly an
elemental and instinctual entity. When badly positioned, this "shadow planet" is
characterized by insatiable worldly recognitions and desires together with sense
gratification. Wearing a hessonite of at least 2 carats is said to
calm the senses, bring success, wealth
and notoriety in society, increase life span and good fortune. Hessonite can be
substituted with orange zircon. If
